Scarlet Fever!

HI all, I brought my little girl to the Dr.'s today after battling fevers of 103 and up, for three days. Turns out she has developed scarlet fever, which starts off with strep throat. She's covered in this bright red rash and very miserable. Well, guess what....DH and I have the beginnings of strep throat. We are all on Zithromax. I hope the antibiotics don't make me sick in the poopy sense. I spoke with my surgeon about it and he said I should be OK. We'll see. Should be a LOOOONNNG weekend.

Oh WOW! I had Scarlet Fever when I was a kid. I remember everyone in my house had to take antibiotics. The zitrhomax shouldn't give you poopies. all the cillins give me the poopies bad! You can also take it with or without food.

I hope you all feel better soon, Keela!

Kathi G. I LOVE MY RNY!!

Keela, take good care of yourself and your family. I don't know anything about scarlet fever. How long does it last? How is it contracted? I'll be praying for you Keela.

I hope your little one gets better and that you and DH were treated soon enough to avoid the SF part.
